‘The Last Leaf ’ is a touching tale of love and sacrifice. It revolves around the theme of commitment and sacrifice. The commitment was shown by Sue, Johnsy’s friend who was determined to let Johnsy come out of her illness. She is hope personified as she all the time tries to make Johnsy come out of her pessimism. She never ever showed her sadness and hopelessness in front of Johnsy. 

On the other hand, Mr. Behrman showed selflessness and decided to save Johnsy by painting a leaf on the wall. He sacrificed his life just to save Johnsy life. He plays a pivotal role in the story because it was only his art that rekindled the dying hope in Johnsy. He sacrificed his life to save Johnsy and painted the last leaf in the middle of the night when it was raining heavily. 

'The Last Leaf' is an all time story which touches the heart of its readers and motivates to be optimistic in life.
